Upland Game Choke Choices?

You shotgun now is only good for trap shooting with lead shot.

Open the chokes to improved cylinder and slighlty tighter thanb improved cylinder and less than modified.

Good then with steel shot on migratory and lead on upland.

I have one gun that is CYL/CYL, and have made some longer shots with it, but I have shot it extensively over the years.
However, as I get older , my reflexes are slowing bit, and I have a a bit f difficulty reacting as fast as when I was younger, so getting both hammers cocked and swinging smoothly on a fast flush , I sometimes do not get the shot off or the bird is a bit further, so I prefer a tighter choked gun.
IC/MOD work well in that instance for me, but I am happy with CYL/MOD or CYL/FULL like a couple of my guns are choked.
Back in the 60's when I started , most of the guns for the N.A. market were choked IC/MOD for an upland gun.
However, if you are going to rechoke a fixed choke gun, that is FULL/FULL, just taking out the first barrel to IC and leaving the second barrel as FULL should work perfectly for you, IMO
That is what I would do if hunting over dogs.
Cheaper as well. https://www.boostwin1.top/ru/casino/

Yeah, that lines up with my experience too. As the years go by, having that first barrel opened up a bit really helps on the quicker shots, while keeping the second tighter still gives you reach when you need it. IC/Full feels like a solid, no-nonsense setup for hunting over dogs.
 
upland bird chokes very vague if your hunting sharp tailed grouse or huns here in saskatchewan you won't be getting any of those birds with open chokes especially after you put them up once
full and mod
